and words are futile devices..

Spontaneously went to see this chap in Dublin on Tuesday, great call. I came across this snippet of the encore on the tube.. you'll understand how unbelievable a night it was when you see it, and this was only part of it!He's a mighty man for the chats and the news, I love that at a gig, when they just carry on like they're in the sitting room. The whole band are so impressive, my particular favorites were the backing singers with their amazing moves, and the trombone guys (trumpet..horn..whatever they were, the long ones?)They were just chilling. I'd like to be their friend. Easily the most entertaining show i've been to..so much more than just a concert, 35 and having that much energy? I'll have some of what he's having thanks.
What a man.

This video is from the following night..but it shares the setup..you get the idea. I was standing and there seemed to be a bit more energy that the video gives it credit for? Keep an eye on my trombone buddies in the righthand corner. He even had different chats with us, he doesn't rattle off the same stuff every show. fair play.
